My Official £50-£46,000 betting challenge

Just started again with £20

Signed up at bet365 as they're giving 100% of your first deposit.

Stuck £20 in, claimed my free £20

EDIT: doesnt work out quite like I thought but never mind still gives me £40 to play with instead of £20

Yikes, almost lost it all then. Was better on the win, game was in injury time. Final minute of injury time, the other team scored. I managed to cash out the bet and lost £20 off a £27 bet. Got a few quid tied up in other markets but I'm about £10 up from a £10.
 
Glad not unders on the Arsenal game! (6-1 currently!)

Was under 4.5 on the west ham game - so that's another done - looking for a 3 o'clock game now

edit -under 5.5 goals in Wigan v Everton game @ 1.04 looks a decent shout -

skybet give a £10 free bet on signup, but u dont get to retain the stake, after they offered me a free £5 if i deposited £5 though.

put in a fake mobile number, had 2 calls from them already trying to survey me!
 
After a balls up with bet365 after trying to withdraw my initial deposit and losing it they game me a £10 bonus as a "good will" gesture.

Only down side is having to stake £50 on odds over 1.5 before I can withdraw the bonus, however I'm upto £62.95.

Only £4.57 to stake to withdraw my bonus then I'm dropping the riskier bets

if i knew more about football teams i'd have a proper go.

counting sky giving me a 5deposit+5 free im up 5.88, going to withdraw the £10 and just play with the 88p seeing as i barely know anything about any sport other than F1

Nope will wait till a bit later and see if he opens a bigger lead or not before I place a bet.

Had a nightmare with bet365. Took me almost 6 hours to get a bet settled.
A goal may have been disallowed but regardless of the disallowed goal my bet would have still came in. After about 6 conversations on theyre live chat line i got there.
 
glad I was out all day today and missed all the action - i can imagine that I would have busted out on unders in the Chelsea game! no bets today from me - been busy - will get back to it tomorrow
 
Bit confused about this part...

Surely if you had bet your money, how did you "cash out the bet"? What does that mean?
 
If you use betfair or the likes you can lay off your bet to effectively cancel it out or greatly reduce a loss. esp in play betting, the smallest thing can swing the price so quickly. You can effectively guarantee you dont loose. Its similar to day trading stocks.

lol he lost 9-7!

luckily i had the sense to try and lock in a bet against myself! and i managed 2.50 odds!
the original bet was £11 on maguire, i counter bet £3.60 and won 8quid back :D

all in all still up £3 if i dont count the free 5 sky gave me, now i stick to boring predictable football
 
All football for me, just deviated a little and took a risky bet on the superbowl for neither to hit 40 points. They average 25 and 27 a game I think so covered my self nicely and got it @ 1.05
 
Bah shoulda gone for the under 30 points on the superbowl, Odds we're 1,57 but it would have made me a tidy profit of 30 something quid.

Still upto £65.79 after a big loss.

Got to £75 sat and withdrew my initial £20 to then lose it all at £116 so put my original £20 back in
